horse racing industry rules and regulations on animal protection.

Secret investigations revealed brutal treatment of horses at
slaughterhouses before and during slaughter. Horse slaughter is not illegal in
Australia but it is against the policies and rules of the horse racing
industry.

For the past two years, Elio Celotto and the Equestrian
Protection Alliance have been monitoring Meramist slaughterhouses, located
north of Brisbane, with remote cameras and have recorded daily activities
there. In the Meramist kiln, people slaughter all kinds of cattle, but horses

images of horses being put through slaughterhouses and how they were treated.

This process records about 300 racing horses that have passed through the Meramist slaughterhouse in just 22 days. Especially, there were days when a secret camera recorded more than 40 racing horses being slaughtered.

The images recorded and transferred to ABC News also show
slaughterhouse workers torturing animals before killing them. Specifically, the
horses were beaten and tortured, repeatedly hit on the head and killed. Some
were kicked and subjected to electric shocks.

And yet, one worker saw a piece of wood pounding the horses
repeatedly, another beating them with water pipes.

The horse racing industry in Australia is a massive business
that requires a large supply. In the last fiscal year, the industry has
produced 14,000 foals. In addition, each year, about 8,500 horses are withdrawn
from the track.

However, according to him, the guarantees of the horse
racing industry are not reliable. The fact is, a large number of horses are
having a very terrible end, at least 4,000 horses per year.

Peter V’Landys, a horse racing official in New South Wales, said he was unaware of the horses being taken to the slaughterhouse, and said anyone found to be in violation of the rules would be Strict handling.

ABC has confirmed that Luddenham Pet Meat is supplying
minced meat to the hound racing industry. However, Mr V’Landys said he had no
evidence that people supplied racing horse meat to hunting dogs.

Domestic yaks are raised primarily for milk, fur, and meat, as well as for plowing or pulling cars. They transport goods throughout the mountain passes to local farmers and traders as well as to expeditions and mountaineers. Cow dung is even burned as a fuel source.

Yak cow milk is made into a cheese called Chhurpi or Byaslag. Butter made from Yak cow milk is also an ingredient in the butter tea that Tibetans love to drink or make statues in religious festivals.

Only a few women dare to pursue a career in photographing adventure sports. And if we try to understand them, we will have to call them heroes.

A lot of those athletes, we are starting to take an interest in extreme sports when we see photos of outstanding athletes flying with paragliding in the sky.

Few people remember that behind the pictures that inspire millions of photographers, artists are also rolling and passionate about challenges. And few know that, for women, those challenges are much more arduous.

The images you are looking at on this newspaper site were made by Yana Mavlyutova, a female Russian photographer. And she is one of the rare women to pursue this job.

Sport is still a male dominated field. Most presidents of sports corporations are men. Men’s athletes are often more noticeable, attracting sponsors and fans. As a result, female photographers are also less valued than their male counterparts.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the number of professional sports photographers in the world is extremely small. To have the opportunity to work, they not only have to compete with countless male colleagues about their talent and health to face gender prejudice.

The female photographer Sachi Cunningham, who is known as an excellent camera when capturing images of female surf athletes. She had to admit that her profession was a fiercely competitive world because society still considered women unsuitable for the type of work that needed delicate, sensitive eyes and supple muscles.

The challenge of strength and skill exists is what any photographer specializing in adventure sports must have. These women need not only health, but also a close understanding of the sports they capture.

The work is not only difficult but also life-threatening. Therefore, not many customers want to give that responsibility to women.

When Mozambique lost more than half of its elephants due to hunting since 2009, the World Bank’s decision to fund this sport has been questioned. Is hunting the best way to save the animals on the brink of genocide?

At the end of 2014, the World Bank funded US $ 46 million for Mozambique – one of the poorest countries in the world. For tourism development and poverty reduction, of which US $ 700,000 is dedicated to the hunting of elephants and lions.

Meanwhile, poaching for ivory for black markets in Asia caused the number of elephants in Mozambique to plummet. Many poor countries in Africa have long considered hunting as a way to finance wildlife protection.

Despite the fact that the rhino in Zimbabwe did not escape extinction in 2013. In contrast, Botswana and Kenya have decided to ban large-scale hunting in the face of declining numbers of elephants and animals. In these two countries. The view that hunting animals is a conservation strategy still faces mixed opinions.

According to a World Bank spokesman, hunting will be an important tool for sustainable management of protected areas and natural resources. However, many other ideas that profit from sports hunting is not enough to motivate poor communities. Especially in the context of corruption in some countries.

Organizations like the World Bank should recognize that killing animals is an unethical, unethical practice and cannot be considered conservation.

The idea of ​​using wildlife sustainably has been mentioned in the Convention on Biological Diversity. It is a treaty aimed at developing national strategies for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity. Accordingly, humans are allowed to benefit from animals provided that they do not affect the number of individuals and their habitats.

To date, there has never been a comprehensive study to calculate profits and prove that the industry can provide significant benefits to the communities living there. And more importantly, how much of the total benefit will reach the locals after passing the government?
